She truly makes the transition from Pre-K to Kindergarten so smooth. She helps the kids come out of their shell, improve their eating habits, and grow so much in their development overall. Ms. Eden is also amazing! She teaches Kinder through 3rd grade, and my daughter has learned so much from being exposed to different grade levels. Her reading has improved tremendously thanks to the supportive environment. The school also offers a fun summer camp program, where you can choose different activity packets and the kids go on trips Monday through Friday. My daughter loves it -- she's always excited to go and spend time with her friends. I've seen such a positive impact on all the kids here. Many who started out with separation anxiety or shyness now love coming to school every day. That says a lot about the teachers and how they connect with the students. One of the main reasons we went with this school was because of all the positive reviews and the smaller class sizes, which allow for more one-on-one attention between teachers and students. They also provide a yearly schedule so parents always know what's going on, and their early drop-off and late pick-up (until 5:30 PM) make it very convenient for working families. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a place where their child can learn, grow, and feel genuinely cared for.

My older of two sons started here during the 2018-2019 school year. His Kindergarten teacher, Mrs…read more Aguirre, is amazing. She is good at maintaining discipline without being the least bit mean. Both parents and students love her. It was a beautiful year as I got to help once per week in the classroom (while on maternity leave because of his brother) and chaperone most of the field trips. Mrs. Aguirre is a very well-rounded person. She is empathetic and no pushover. She and my son's 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Gomez, are the best of the best. 2nd grade was during the lockdown and she did a fantastic job. She handled an insufferable year with such grace. I am so glad my son had her. That year was hard enough for everyone. It would have been so much worse with a different teacher. I am so grateful that they and Ms. Lao, my younger son's TK teacher, are at Edgewood Academy. I also absolutely loved Ms. Lentz. She was the principal when my older son started attending the school and stayed through the 2020-2021 school year. She prioritized students and parents. It was so apparent that staff and faculty loved her, too. For the 2021-2022 school year, we had Dr. Hernandez and she very evidently gave her all to the job as well. I was able to volunteer a lot when she was around, too. My rating is currently only three stars because the current principal who took over at the start of the 2022-2023 school year has been a huge disappointment. He is very dismissive of parents. He ignores electronic messages and, in person, he gives empty promises. I fear that if my children are ever bullied, he will do nothing. I have yet to hear anyone say anything positive about him aside from one formal thanks from the PTA that felt forced.

Throughout the pandemic the school has not let our family down. It's been difficult but not impossible for children to get a quality education through distance learning. Staff member Rene has been amazing and he should definitely be commended of how dedicated he is and in contact with parents. Anything you need, any questions you may have, or any problem that needs a solution you can count on Rene to help you on it. Mrs Ovalle the principal needs to be commended also for the excellent job she's done running to school doing a difficult time. Lastly The faculty here have exceeded my expectations. Every single staff member here needs to be congratulated and celebrated for the hard work, the dedication they've put into our children's education, and the amazing job they done as educators.

There is one teacher who really appears to bond just a little better than the other. Not sure what his name is but as the kids where walking up to get their promotional certificates for graduation yesterday 6/4/25 he did special gestures with each and everyone of his students which was a treat to watch. Thank you to that awesome teacher! My biggest complaint was that the promotion was exceptionally long! I attended a college graduation and a HS graduation both within these last 3 weeks and this 8 grade promotion by far was the longest! Maybe if the principal hadn't gone on and on and talked so much it would have made it much shorter and more enjoyable. The video at the end was absolutely great and as each one signed off made it even more special. This is the second promotion I have attended for this school. Maybe next year make it more about the kids and not the principal and shorten it. Congratulations to class of 2025! Go little sharks and become big sharks!

It's higher learning but the school itself is simple and fun. We went on plenty of fair trips everywhere and learned a lot. This school preps one to enter private high schools like Bishop Amat or Mater Dei to name a few. It's strick yet fun. I would recommend anyone send their child to attend. A serious double thumbs up.

Rebecca Unver is the worst teacher , she is rude , horrible to the kids , and an unhappy miserable person: you can tell by how she speaks. A lot of children including my son told me that she throws their homework on the floor and makes them pick it up like it's trash . She's the most unfit person to be a teacher and I'm wondering everyday why she's still there. She also likes to bully her class and say mean things to them , I have a long list of evidence and have met with the principal regarding her behavior but I needed to post this and warn other parents , I wouldn't want their child to go through what these kids have gone through.
